Roth want the same Railroad

Mitchell Republican: Fl. 9. Greene,
of this city. was in st. Paul Thursday,
and while there ran across q party of
Huron citizens headed by Gov. Church
who were laying strong siege to Presl.
deaf Hill, CT the Manitoba, with o view
to indnclng him to build to Huron.
The governor WAS evidently using not
only his personal influence as a citizen
OF Huron to help her interests, but he
was bringing to bear his political in
hnence as well on the Manitoba officials.
several OF whom were Instrumental 10
Lelping him to his present place. This
action OF his in furtherlng the fortunes
OF one town to the detriment OF other
localities, when as governor OF the whole
territory he Is supposed to nave no local
interests, IS in poor taste, to say the
least.
Ihe Pioneer Press, in reference to the
interview had by the Huron people with
MIR. Hill. says:
Mr. Hill was willing enough to build
the extension, but said that he could not
possibly do it this year. His iron supply
is already contracted for aud is all inten-
ded for the north Dakota and Montana
work and cannot be used elsewhere
With LOO miles to be built there, Mr..
Hill did not feel that he could under.
take to enter south Dakota this year, He
gave the Huronites every assurance
however, he would build TO Huron nexi
year and connect his Minnesota system
with that of south Dakota.
This statement must be taken with o
great deal OF allowance. In the first
place, railroad managers do mt
give out their plans so far in advance.
Secondly, the Manitoba can hardly
afford to go so far out OF her direct
survey from Watertown southwest tc
the Missouri river to take in Huron.
And thirdly, Mitchell is in the line 81
a preliminary survey already made, anc
stands five chances to one of Huron o.
getting the Manitoba road when it ii
built.
Meanwhile, there is work to be done
to secure this Duluth connection, which
is the n thing needfnl at this stage O.
the city's growth.

jector OF the Omaha Southern road now
building, represents a syndicate OF OH
.eago and New York capitalists. He
offered to build the road If 100000
we're raised by the people along the line.
The proposition was accepted, as most
of the counties have already agreed to
raise their share OF the amount. A con-
tract will be made with Mr. Young at
once and the road will be ready for use
in eighteen months.
In the correspondence which has led
up to this contract for a railroad, j. O..
Meckllng, one OF the officers OF the
Omaha Southern, has expressed q strong
desire to complete the road this year
and it ls probable that an effort will be
made to push it through before the end
of 1887. In the beginning of the negoti-
%atiens, which date back to last February,
it was hoped that an earlier start might
be arranged, but such projects move
slowly and more time has passed than
was intended between the inception and
the contamination of the arrangement.

not been very good the last few years,

after his last re selection to the senate he
made mp his mind to retire from pubic
life and place at the end OF that term,
and will carry his resolution into effect.

TWO SIGNALS.

The salient point In American politics
to-day Is that the Republican party is
already bulletined for the undertaken, be
cause 1t Is known To all men that ii had the
call Of great political destiny which 1t
fulfilled, and its forces evolved
by the inspiration of great oc-
casion being now dead, with the
accomplishment of the purpose, Of
course the party is dead, or will soon be.
The scattering forces of the Republi-
can party that have too much prejudice
to be Democratic are crystalizing on 9th
or issues that are not such as a supposed
great national party can take hold on. One
of these Issues is prohibition, which raj
lies a very active element all over the
country on the grounds of social morali
ty that may become as strong as the abo-
ition element, that knew so little of
slavery and that was the first motive Of
the great civil war, though the war as
sumed character entirely different from
the abolitionists' idea as we know by
Stewards famous war speech at Chicago
that rallied the whole West on differ
ent sensation.
The first signal to which we call atten-
ton Is the alliance between the Pro
hibitionists and the woman sulIragans !;
for the average woman may not care to
vote, but when the blatant, cold-water
man tells her that it is a way to ami
hilste the arch enemy of the home, she is
apt to get excited as they do at camp
meeting, and come to the front
Il will be the joke of the era TO see
The Daily times. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1886-1889, 1887-06-29
how the demagogues will seek the votes
OF the sisters.

how the demagCgues VIII seek tne votes
OF the sisters.
The second signal is what Is called the
"labor movement" We have not the
slightest doubt that in the end the com
mon sense justice and courage that con-
stitute the understanding of free citi-
zenship in this free country will settle
the question and bring the laboring man
up to a clear understanding Of his posi-
ton, and that he will see that the manual
worker cannot be organized on principles
that do not apply equally to the other
workers. But in the meantime the evil
spirits who nurse the IDEAS born OF OPP
preston in monarchical countries, are
organized to poison the whole popular
mind with anarchy and communism dis
guised under specious pleas of wrongs.
The sensible answer to the Henry
George McGlynn circus is that thousands
and thousands Of manual labOrers in our
free country have attained distinction
by the very justice of our way Of doing
things under a republican system
The George system would throw the
world back a thousand years, and con
fiscating property to the Government
would merely destroy competition,
and make every citizen virtually a
slave by ordering him from his
birth upward exactly what he
should do. If railroads, telegraphs,
lands, insurance companies, tobacco bust
ness, street railroads and everything else
belong to the Government, Of course
every citizen must be the slave OF
that Government, and nobody can
make anything else out Of it, Perhaps
before the rule of common sense is es-
tablished it may cost trouble but what
we wish to impress on people of all
classes is that the best thing for the
conservative citizen with family to do
is to combat the two dangerous elements
one is Prohibition and the other is
Communism.

Unless the shareholders of the Panama

dead. The principal officers and engi-
neers have left in disgust until another
start is made, and that start appears to
be impossible.
The fraud has already cost numbers OF
credulous people the little sum of S27j,
900, 000-which is nearly three times what
the Suez Canal cost when completed, and
the Panama canal is hardly begun.
